Hollywood is coming to Darlington Raceway.
On Friday, July 18 and Friday, August 22, the track will host “Turn 3 Theater Presented by Raceway Ford Chevrolet”, a free movie event hosted at the track’s lush hospitality village.
The family-fun movie nights will feature Pixar’s “Cars” in June and Disney’s “Planes” in August. During the “Cars” showing, the track will have the famous Hudson Hornet on display. The Hudson Hornet was the inspiration behind the character “Doc” in the original film, which was released in 2006.
“Planes” was a 2013 spinoff from the “Cars” franchise.
“Turn 3 Theater Presented by Raceway Automotive” will also offer kids activities, cornhole games and a variety of other family activities. Pace car rides for a $5 per person donation and concessions will be available with all proceeds benefiting the track’s 501(c)3 non-profit arm, Darlington Shares.

Kevin Harvick, driver of the No. 4 Budweiser Chevrolet for Stewart-Haas Racing, recorded his first career win at Darlington Raceway after a thrilling finish in the Bojangles’ Southern 500 on Saturday night.
Harvick, who led a race-high 238 laps, had the one of the strongest cars in the field all night. After losing the lead on a pit road after a late caution, Harvick charged to the front in the final 10 laps. With the help of two attempts at a green-white checkered finish, Harvick managed to pass Dale Earnhardt Jr. to secure his first win at Darlington in his 18th career start at the track.
